+Dijkstra_journey
+========================
+
+Dijkstra's algorithm, developed by Edsger W. Dijkstra in 1956, is a classic algorithm used to find the shortest paths between nodes in a graph. Its applications span network routing, geographical mapping, and various optimization problems.
+
+## How to run
+To launch the interactive visualization, run `solara run app.py` in this directory.
+
+
+## Algorithm details
+ formula used in Dijkstra's algorithm:
+
+[ d[v] = \min(d[v], d[u] + w(u, v)) \]
+
+where:
+- \( d[v] \) is the current shortest distance from the start node to node \( v \).
+- \( d[u] \) is the shortest distance from the start node to node \( u \).
+- \( w(u, v) \) is the weight of the edge between nodes \( u \) and \( v \).
